If Gilda Radner, one of the original cast of Saturday Night Live, had known of her familys medical pedigree and her ethnic heritage, she possibly could have prevented her death from ovarian cancer, the silent killer that tragically took her life at the age of 42. Cancer, mental illness, diabetes, and heart disease all have a hereditary component. Unlocking Your Genetic History explains how to integrate a family health history into your genealogy, how to get the appropriate medical information and analyze it, and how to design a medical pedigree in order to detect the genetic influence on your familys health. Early awareness, identification, and treatment can mean the difference between life and death.The second part of the book discusses the exciting new field of using genetic testing to link you to your ancestors and verify your genealogy. Genetic testing was used to show that Thomas Jefferson fathered children with his slave Sally Hemings and has direct male descendents living today. It has shown that Jews retained their genetic identity despite the Jewish Diasporsa. DNA testing can help identify Native American ancestry, determine who settled Polynesia, and track the march of Genghis Khan as he swept out of Mongolia. Today DNA testing is being used in court and to identify human remains.Unlocking Your Genetic History will help readers understand their familys medical and genetic history and help them understand the genetic revolution.

I was really disappointed with this book. It arrived with some pages crumpled and the content didn't match what I hoped for. It seemed more like a general overview rather than a detailed guide. I wouldn’t recommend it for serious research.

Good Info, But Somewhat Confusing
I appreciated the information in this book, but some sections felt a bit convoluted. It took me a few tries to grasp certain concepts. That said, I did learn a lot about my family's health history, so it's worth it!

A Deep Dive into My Family's Past
This guide really opened my eyes to the medical and genetic history in my family. The step-by-step approach made it easy to follow, even for a beginner like me. I’ve already uncovered some unexpected connections!
